Make in India – Bangalore and Hyderabad can be the next Silicon Valley

Researchers and academics from a host of Indian and French institutions on Wednesday felt India could have a hi-tech manufacturing hub on the Hyderabad-Bangalore stretch that could one day be compared to USA’s Silicon Valley.

At a workshop to identify potential research projects in Digital Manufacturing and Prototyping , founder-director of Mahindra École Centrale College of Engineering, Sanjay G. Dhande said ‘Make in India’ would be a success if the share of the manufacturing as a contributor to the economy rose to 25 per cent.

It featured researchers from Institut d’Optique, CSIR, Sterlite, Carborundum Universal and Tata Steel and academics from IIT-Delhi, Bombay, Hyderabad, Centrale Supelec and MEC.
